Juan Jiménez Mayor, former president of the Council of Ministers, spoke about the crisis in Peru and how it has been handled by Congress and the Executive. Likewise, he revealed information about who, in his opinion, is behind the legal defense of Pedro Castillo.

The former premier held that position during the former president’s self-coup. The Public Ministry also attributes the crime of conspiracy to him.

“There is a group of lawyers that has gone to Barbadillo to meet with the former president. One of them is the former judge of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the famous Argentine criminal lawyer, Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni,” Jiménez told channel N.

He said that this is a very famous lawyer who has been a magistrate in Argentina. “I understand that he is part of a pool of lawyers who have been summoned for the defense,” he said. In the broadcast of the interview, a photo of Zaffaroni was shown in the Barbadillo prison in Ate from the meeting he held with congressman Pasión Dávila and lawyer Eduardo Pachas.

The former leftist president’s self-coup “weakened his unstable democracy.” Seven changes of presidents in the last six years, constant confrontations between the powers of the State and social repression marked this scenario.

For Jiménez Mayor, an international defense of the Castillo case may have resonance in the inter-American system. He added that he is a very heavy weight and a person very close to the Argentine government. “Surely it is there because there is an international strategy for the defense of former President Castillo. I do not have the written proof, but everything makes one think, ”he said.

He estimated that the issue of Castillo’s preventive detention will surely be an issue that they will try to question in the inter-American system; and in fact, the lawyers have already been raising a series of cases here in Peru with the intention of exhausting the internal route.

The former president of the Council of Ministers indicated that a pronouncement like the one from the previous night was expected

For the former premier, the Argentine jurist “does not come for free.” “It is no coincidence that Zaffaroni is here in Peru and is in Barbadillo. That is very clear”. In addition, he revealed that there are videos on YouTube where you can see what he thinks about the Castillo case and how critical he is of the actions of President Dina Boluarte and the Peruvian government.

In fact, a few days ago he gave an interview to La República where he said he had the impression that what is on the other side of Pedro Castillo’s arrest is Congress. The outlet indicated that the note was produced as part of a visit by the former magistrate to Arequipa for a series of talks and conferences.

Regarding the acts of corruption of the rural teacher, Zaffaroni commented: “Why, when corruption is committed by right-wing leaders, there are not such lengthy and mediatic trials. In the world, there is pressure from transnational companies. For 30 years, productive capitalism has been subdued by the financial apparatus, which generates worrying instability”.

Returning to Jiménez Mayor, he hopes that Castillo will not be released, because he could generate a greater upheaval in the country. “Hopefully things calm down. The latest OAS resolution somehow seeks to support Peru. The international community supports the country in this delicate situation that we have. We cannot be putting more gasoline on the fire, ”he sentenced.

Precisely, this Thursday, President Boluarte pointed out that the demonstrations in the country are being planned from Dinoes, in reference to Pedro Castillo. The interviewee pointed out that the president is trying to distance herself from the former head of state.

For the exPCM, the most relevant aspect of this issue is the inaction of Congress. “Because, finally, if this is an issue that can be discussed at the judicial level or at the level of the inter-American system, then we have to have the battery of cases that have been presented by the National Prosecutor’s Office against the former president and all his criminal organization group, as it has been described,” he said.

He pointed out that it is up to Parliament to continue with the processes of constitutional accusation of the vacated president. “The Castillo cases are not moving. And that is something unintelligible, ”he said.

He questioned that the Legislature is single-issue, because it only deals with one issue at a time. “There are 130 congressmen who do their job. They don’t even want to leave and they don’t want to work either. So what’s the point with them? I don’t understand,” she specified.
